Home Care
Braces
- Brushing and flossing are essential with braces to prevent plaque and white marks. Brush teeth and gums after every meal with a soft toothbrush at a 45° angle, and floss daily.
- Avoid hard, sticky, or chewy foods like nuts, popcorn, gum, and candy. Cut fruits, vegetables, and tough or chewy foods into small pieces.
- Mild soreness is normal for a few days after placement or adjustments. Use over-the-counter pain relievers if needed.
- Loose wires or bands can be gently redirected or covered with wax. Please contact us to schedule for repairs.
- Elastics must be worn as instructed to keep treatment on track.
Invisalign
- Invisalign aligners should be worn as prescribed, typically 20–22 hours per day.
Remove only for eating or drinking (except water) and brush teeth before reinserting. - Clean aligners daily with a soft brush and lukewarm water. Dish soap or liquid hand soap can also be used to keep the trays fresh and clean.
- Each tray moves teeth in small increments, so consistent wear ensures timely results.
- Wear your elastics and use tray-seating chewies as directed to keep treatment on track.
Retainers & Removable Appliances
- Wear removable appliances and retainers as instructed, even while sleeping.
- Remove only for eating, playing musical instruments with a mouthpiece, or vigorous activity.
- Clean daily as directed and always store in their case.
Lost or broken appliances may incur additional charges.
